Simple Baked Taco Bowls

I am a big fan of those crispy fried taco bowl salads at Qdoba and Baja Fresh. Eating the fried taco bowl is the best part! When I saw this idea over at Annie's Eats, I immediately thought, what a cute, simple and healthy idea to make my own taco bowls! This is a great way to vary your taco night from the usual soft shell or hard shell tacos. Start by warming up a 6-7 inch (medium sized) flour tortilla in the microwave for about 10-15 seconds. Then lightly oil the tortilla shell (I sprayed both sides with Olive Oil Pam spray) and I sprinkled it lightly with some salt as well. Place the shell in between the cups of an overturned muffin tin and bake at 425 for 8-10 minutes. Fill with all of your favorite taco fixings! They are pretty small so one person could probably eat two taco bowls or you can do what I did tonight and eat one taco bowl and one soft shell taco! : )
